Cumbernauld village in North Lanarkshire. The image shows a view along a street in sunlight with the left-hand side in deep shadow. The buildings are two storeys high, some with dormer windows in their attics, and most are finished in white.

Quite the smoke fallout over #Glasgow from the #Cumbernauld fire. Ah the sun shining through the asthma inducing haze.

A paved path covered in some brown leaves. Surrounded by a tree covered embankment on the left and some more trees on the right. The trees have no leaves.

A gravel path next to a river. Trees and branches on both sides. The trees have no leaves left. There’s a small strip of green grass on both sides of the narrow path.

A small waterfall in a river. Trees—currently without leaves—grow on both riverbanks.

From yesterday's walk with dad: the 10m tall #Arria statue by Scottish sculptor Andy Scott (who was also behind the fabulous Kelpies).

Words for Jim Carruth's poem, Watershed, wind their way around the lower segments.

In recent years, there have been calls both to return it to Glasgow for installation in Queen Street Station, and to have it re-installed in a more public space in Cumbernauld. However, for the moment it remains in the Antonine Shopping Centre in a closed off section where it can only be viewed by request, which is a sad state of affairs for such a grand public clock.

After the station was demolished, the clock was purchased by the businessman Raymond Gullies, who donated it to Cumbernauld when the new town celebrated its 21st birthday in 1977, where it was erected on a public walkway and featured in the 1980s film Gregory's Girl. In the 2000s, it was moved into the new Antonine Shopping Centre when Cumbernauld town centre was redeveloped.

The Saint Enoch Station Clock.

Built in the 1870s for the City of Glasgow Union Railway and designed by John Fowler and James F. Blair, Saint Enoch Station was once the grandest station in Glasgow. It was closed in 1966 and then demolished in the 1970s. This clock, which hung inside, is pretty much the only part of it which remains.

Earlier this week, in another author visit inspired by the #ShelfLife24 climate change promotion, children from St Mary's Primary in #Cumbernauld enjoyed a visit from author Emily Dodd while at #CumbernauldLib.

It's #WorldPhotographyDay so I thought I'd share this photo I took this afternoon of some windsurfers on Fannyside Loch, #Cumbernauld on my walk around #Palacerigg Country Park.

Lovely afternoon at the #cumbernauld #repairCafe , spent so long fixing one lady's CD player that she volunteered to do some sewing.
